New York Jets<\/strong><br \/>\nThe offense seems to have found itself after the opening night nightmare against Baltimore.\u00a0 The Vikings defense will be a good test for Sanchez and company.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n2. Pittsburgh Steelers<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Steelers stay put even after the loss Sunday.\u00a0 That\u2019s a game they win handily if Big Ben is playing.\u00a0 With the suspension in their rear-view mirror, the Steelers will start to show their dominance.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n3. Atlanta Falcons<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Falcons defense is allowing only 15 points per game thus far.\u00a0 They have more than enough offense to be a major factor in the NFC race if their defense can maintain anything close to its current pace.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n4. New Orleans Saints<\/strong><br \/>\nIt wasn\u2019t quite the resounding win you would have liked to see coming off their first loss.\u00a0 There is something off about the champs.\u00a0 Injuries in the backfield aren\u2019t helping, and the passing game isn\u2019t in synch.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n5. Green Bay Packers<\/strong><br \/>\nThe defense has allowed over 20 points per game to teams not named the Bills.\u00a0 That has to change if the Pack wants to achieve their lofty goals for 2010.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n6. Baltimore Ravens<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Ravens don\u2019t have to apologize for a road win in Pittsburgh no matter who played or didn\u2019t play.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n7. New England Patriots<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Pats lead the league in scoring through the first quarter of the season.\u00a0 If they are seriously entertaining thoughts of trading Randy Moss, the offense can expect to find things much more difficult through the remaining three quarters of the season.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n8. Houston Texans<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Texans won in Oakland in the fashion you should if you consider yourself a contender.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n9. Chicago Bears<\/strong><br \/>\nMike Martz still has no idea how to protect a quarterback against a big-time NFL pass rush.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n10. San Diego Chargers<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Chargers offense isn\u2019t missing Vincent Jackson.\u00a0 His leverage is sliding as the Bolts put up over 28 points per game in the first four contests.<\/p>\n<p>You can discuss these rankings on our <a href=\"https:\/\/forums.jetnation.com\/\">NFL message board<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Nick Ferraro 1.
